Can you give more info about the Vibe beach upgrade
Of course! Most importantly, the Vibe Beach Club upgrade is only a thing on Norwegian cruises. For whatever reason, NCL is not great about advertising this upgrade. The Vibe Beach Club is only available on some NCL cruise ships (but all of the NCL ships on the Alaska route have it). Each ship dedicates a different portion of its highest deck to this exclusive Vibe Beach Club. As soon as you get on the ship, go to the front desk and ask to purchase the upgrade. On our most recent cruise, we were able to get the upgrade on the NCL app right before our cruise, but every other time we were only able to purchase it once we were actually on board. The cost of the upgrade varies depending on the length of the cruise - it was around $200 for our 7-day cruise, per person. Your NCL room card will give you access to a locked and secured door on the upper deck to an exclusive area with its own bar, its own dedicated bartenders, multiple hot tubs, lounging chairs, towels, and cabanas. You have access to this area 24/7, although the bar closes at sunset. You are literally treated like royalty there, and the bartenders will recognize you and cater to you around the rest of the ship as well. They will remember your names and what you like to drink, without fail. The Vibe Beach Club bartenders are amazing and really add to the entire experience. The bartenders in this position are the best on the ship. They usually get promoted to the newer ships in the fleet after. There's a limit on the number of Vibe Beach Club passes on each ship, so the area never gets busy and you can pretty much always have a hot tub to yourself. With drink service though! If you already have a cruise booked, we suggest you start with the NCL website page dedicated to that specific ship - navigate to the "Deck Plans" section, click on "What's on Board," then select "Bars and Lounges." If offered on your ship, the Vibe Beach Club usually shows up near the end of the list of bars/lounges, usually on Page 2 of the list. This is literally the only section of the NCL website that even talks about the Vibe Beach Club. We supposed they kind of bury it to keep it a secret and exclusive...it works! We hope you have a great trip!!
Thank you for the helpful information. I found out that Big blue bus tickets to Mendenhall Glacier are not available for purchase online. May I ask how you booked your taxi? And how did you get back? Thank you for any additional information!
Of course! So when we arrived in Juneau, there was a taxi pickup area as soon as we walked off the ship. We were quoted a one way taxi trip to Mendenhall Glacier that included the park entry fee. We were planning to call our original taxi driver to pick us up after, but there were a slew of taxis waiting in the park's parking lot so once we were done exploring the glacier we just hopped in the nearest taxi and went back to the ship!
